The RIG Grip® C6 Advantages
Durability
Proprietary TPO core customized for puncture and temperature resistance. Does not crack in the dead of the winter and is durable enough to withstand heavy rig traffic.
Reduced costs
Rugged performance often leads to multiple uses, driving down costs on repair and replacement. Rig Grip® requires roughly 1/3rd of the installation time needed for traditional felt-liner-felt systems.
Safety
Ribbed synthetic carpet technology increases traction for workplace safety. Special summer green reduces temperatures by 20°f compared to standard black liners.
Engineering
Rig Grip® is manufactured using extrusion lamination. Core TPO liner is extruded directly between two fleece layers, making for a solid unicaste product. No glue or adhesive products are used during the production of Rig Grip®. This process ensures long lasting durability and performance.
